Bolivariano receives praise for its comfortable buses and punctual service. Passengers appreciate the scenic views from the upper deck, although some mention that strong air conditioning made it difficult to sleep. Additionally, there are comments about limited legroom and loud music affecting rest in certain areas of the bus.

Hi, l really enjoy bus trips for sight seeing and going from Bogota to Medellin is a great experience, the buses are comfortable, prices fair and there is usually some sort of entertainment which helps break up the long hours. I have boarded quite a few of Bolivariano buses and l have to say it is the most stressful part of my trips being at the bus terminal, l make sure to get their way ahead of time as there is absolutely no direction or communication from staff, l only get a (dismissive) wave of hands in a general direction with no follow up, my last ticket said gate 25 but there were only 24(??) numbers to be seen and no staff anywhere to assist with this, l was feeling a bit sick with concern that l may not work out where my bus would be in time as l had a flight to catch at my destination, l dont mind and allow for buses arrving late to their desitintion when its such a long trip but would dearly love some clarified direction and present and informative staff at a huge bus terminal (l have a few times seen local people looking confused and even approaching me for assistance), but l endure as l really enjoy bus trips when travelling

Enjoyed the kindness of the staff on the bus. The main issue was that the bus got to the destination two + hours late, turning a four hour trip into over six hours. That wouldn't be so bad if that is the length of time they would have said in the first place. I think there were a few stops were they were picking up people en route in order to fill up the bus, which is play but probably didn't help keep the bus on schedule. Other than that, nice bathroom stop and driver.

Service and organisation was very good! The busdriver drove very fast and rough. I was a bit scared and we arrived way to early 2h, so I had to wait in the terminal instead of sleeping in the sleeping chair.

Very noisy. A driver yelling at a foreigner for getting sick on the bus. It was absurd.
